Background
The original Xbox Series X was released in late 2020. Four years later, in late 2024, Microsoft updated their Xbox Series X|S line with a "mid-cycle refresh," including a 1 TB Series S (previously only available with 512 GB), a special edition "Galaxy Black" 2 TB Series X with a speckled paint job, and this console, the Xbox Series X 1 TB Digital Edition, a regular Series X, now in Robot White, and now without a disc drive.
The Xbox Series X Digital Edition, like the original Series X, targets true 4K gaming at 120 fps. It features an identical system-on-chip (SoC) with AMD’s Zen 2 CPU and RDNA 2 GPU architectures.
The Xbox Series X Digital Edition is priced at $449.99 USD and, at launch, is only available in Robot White.
Identification
The Series X Digital Edition is a white rectangular box, standing vertically. It's quite a bit larger than the One X and One S and is designed to resemble a small PC tower. The ports on the back come with some tactile identification in the form of tiny raised dots. There's a Master Chief logo on the massive fan, which can be seen by removing the back panel.
The model number and other information can be found on the back of the console.
